nginx 安装失败 没有/etc/nginx目录

Failed to start A high performance web server and a reverse proxy server

apt-get remove --purge xxx # 移除应用及配置
apt-get autoremove # 移除没用的包

Since you managed to install it anyhow first thing you've to do is to remove it completely with the configuration files

Follow these steps to remove it completely and install it again.

• Open terminal and execute these commands:

  sudo apt-get autoremove nginx
  sudo apt-get --purge remove nginx
  sudo apt-get autoremove && sudo apt-get autoclean
  sudo find / | grep nginx | sudo xargs rm -rf
  

  _{the last command will remove the repository also so you've to add it again by:}

  sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nginx/stable
  

  Now try to install it again by:

  sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -f install nginx
  

• Hope it would solve your issue. Reply if you get any error at any particular command describing the command.

This is the output of

sudo dpkg -l | grep nginx:
